The connections between three Romanian centers of pathology outlined by Professor Augustin Mureşan (1908-1985).

The Romanian School of Pathology has a complex history, which must be thoroughly known to be appreciated at its value. The research includes data on the pathology' evolution in our country, the overview of the most important research centers and their dealings. It also contains landmarks about the most important Romanian pathologists, their activities etc. Among them was Augustin Mureşan (1908-1985). He was member of three important Romanian pathology centers: Cluj, Bucharest and Timişoara. Cluj was the place of his career debut and the place where he ended his professional activity. In Bucharest, his professional training and career took place over two decades. In Timişoara, he taught pathology courses for students for two years. Among his professional achievements, it should be noted that under his editorship was published the unique textbook of pathology for Romanian faculties of medicine (1962). He also supervised doctoral theses for more than 20 years. He described the first three cases of histoplasmosis in Romania, and he was one of the first Romanian researchers who studied liver biopsies (1942) and kidney biopsies (1947).
